By the way, my theory on why Dante no longer uses Sparda is that since Dante has surpassed his father in power, Sparda may actually be limiting him to only his father's power, as opposed to Dante having access to all of his own power while using Rebellion. Plus, Rebellion is a reflection of Dante's true nature in its appearance (The skull on Rebellion has devil horns on one side, but is normal on the other side.) and its very name (Dante is extremely rebellious.), while Sparda is his father's blade. Besides, Nero would be able to wield Sparda best, because Sparda is a single edged sword like Nero's beloved Red Queen, and has roughly the same shape and dimensions if I remember correctly.
